I know you can't stop your friend if he decides to breed BPs, but definitely try to talk him out of it. If he doesn't even keep the animals at his own house and he is talking about money being his motivating factor he is in in for the wrong reasons and is sure to fail at the animal's expense. Maybe show him on this thread and some others that discuss breeding and the time and experience and luck involved to be "successful" financially. Like said above, he will probably struggle to break even. Maybe seeing some facts or threads about the difficulty of turning a profit on a small scale breeding level would discourage him. Money being his motivator would probably be the best way to change his mind as well. If he sees the difficulties in making a quick buck, maybe he will move onto another hair-brained money-making idea that at least won't cause any animals to suffer.
If he's already not keeping "his" animals at home and he is already pawning off unwanted animals, then he has no business bringing more into the world.
